An excellent question. We read about the fantastic successes of the youth team in recent years, but the most we ever see of them now is an occasional appearance on the bench. Coley is often quoted as being keen to give a chance to eager young players who are hungry for success, but it never happens in reality. There are plenty of Premiership managers keen to give youngsters a chance at the highest level.
